No, I mean that they are all overcomplicated and bloated, compared to non-GUI
systems.  There is no such thing as a simple GUI with Windows-equivalent
functionality.  And complex GUIs have more of a tendency to crash; occasionally
they make take the OS with them, depending on their design and the design of the
OS.

GUIs tend to crash a lot more than non-GUIs, because of their complexity.
